Why I'm standing
Animals need a strong, unwavering, voice in parliament. I will advocate for a just transition away from industries and practices that treat animals as commodities not only to improve the lives of animals and the health of our communities, but to also reduce environmental degradation, protect our eco-systems, enhance our food security and lower our resource consumption.
About me
I am passionate about improving New Zealand's environmental situation and protecting our unique eco-systems for future generations of people and animals. I believe that if we nurture the connection between people, animals and the environment we can move towards a more sustainable future for Aotearoa.
My priorities
- Stop discrimination against tenants with pets.
- Support spay and neuter programmes.
- Address the impact of animal agriculture on our changing climate.
